Does anyone know how to copy SSL keys between cobalt Raq Servers? I have read many post replies that say you just need to copy the certificate files into the /cert directory. Is this true? Thank you,

Frustrated server admin

Copying keys are easy. You need to copy the key and the certificate. The key file has a .key exstention. The certificate has a .crt exstention. If you have the domain setup on the new server, simply copy the key and cert from one server to the next (placing them in the same directory on each).

So can i do this by FTP ing into the source server then copying the files to a local machine, then FTP ing into the target server and copying the files into the /certs folder, that is automatically created when you enable SSL and the site domain settings? Thank you.

Yes, you can do it like that. Just make sure that you change the ownership of the files before you download them and change them back after you upload it.

Hey thanks a lot man, but i was wondering.....i never had to go in and change ownership to download....i just had to create a site admin user for the site that i needed the SSL keys for. I already did it for one site without changing the ownership of the files. Can you tell me what i need to do, or if i will be affected by this? Thanks.
